Abstract: Project management is a rapidly growing focus discipline with most businesses and organizations and understanding project management as a field of study encompasses large area to cover. Both primary and secondary sources were used to get a comprehensive view of how project organizations run in real life and how many types of projects are run by today's organizations. We chose 'Social Marketing Company (SMC), Bangladesh as the subject of our case study and conducted an extensive interview with the project manager to understand the optimal way of operating and managing projects in a dynamic business environment. After analysis the whole issue, we concluded that SMC is successfully achieving its goal and objective in this area. However, some unexpected obstacles do and will always come at the beginning of the project or even in the lifespan of a project but with proper decisions and planning that can be dealt successfully. The project managers just need to pay more attention to ensure effective communication with stakeholders, monitor the measurement of changes, learn from previous experience, change management plans as per requirement and negotiate if needed while doing a project in the future.
